Soul Calibur 2 for me! Super Smash Bros. Melee is also very good because you have a variety of different characters to choose from that you're familiar with! It was kinda hard to choose between them. (I like them so much because I can kick butt in those games. ^_~ Barely. ._.)

Soul Caliber two was good but it is nowhere near the greatness of Melee. In Melee you can have all kinds of tournaments with your friends, great challenges on 1 player, plenty of trophies to unlock, not to mention characters and stages. Endless amounts of things do with that game. With Soul Caliber 2, you can fight one on one, fight one on one, or if you get the chance fight one on one with a friend. Really, that game is good but it gets boring VERY VERY VERY VERY fast.

Its supposed to be a challenge thats why its called a shortcut, if it were easy it would just be the way.

Ivy is a pretty tough one to play. But that one attack looks really cool once you manage to get the sequence right. "Calamity Symphony" I think....

She is hard to master and learn but she is the most leatal character in the game, i havn't fully master her moves but i can do those big ones, i can't remember there names anyway, it's just finding the right moment that gives you enough time to pull it off, the only problem is i dunno which moves to do with her, as all her moves are suited for a certain situation and i know like all of them so in my mind i'm mentally trying to pick a move and that slows me down. If you face any experienced player, keep in mind, never ever get knocked to the ground when facing Ivy, as as soon as you hit that ground your not get gonna get back up again!! Ivy will keep attacking you until youm die!

As for Talim i can beat you so fast, she's the faster character in the game...i think, and spead and agility is a quality i always prefer in my characters, and it's always the girls who have them, hence me always chosing girl fighters, girls rule xD -lol-

Itīs a tough decision...Smash Bros . Melee is a great game cause there are a lot of nintendo characters in it and you can have a great time playing with your friends,But Soul Calibur II(not Caliber) has great graphics and awesome characters .There are three versions:Gamecube,PS2 and Xbox.I prefer the gamecube version because it has Link in it.The PS2 is the second choice I have:Heihachi is a great fighter and the XZbox version...Bleurgh!!!

In conclusion Soul Calibur II is my favorite in Graphics , music,sounds .Smash Bros is for the nintendo fans.I like the both of them.

Yep, the faster the character, the more fun playing! When you play with Talim, you can get a bunch of hits in pretty quickly, so the other person really has no chance to get an attack in. Ha, I've beaten just about everybody with her......

Ivy is impossible for me to master..... But her moves are pretty quick as well if you know how to play her right. That's the only problem with Nightmare, he has a whole lot of power and yet he goes so slow!! Geez, can't he move any faster!!

If he could move any faster he would be way too powerful. However using balanced character is better in my opinion cause it allows you to get in hits quickly while giving you something of a resistance to the insanely strong attacks.

Note - I did not make this....i found it on the internet.....props to whoever did make it though....

Hehe, I guess all great games have their drawbacks.

Nightmare isn't all too bad, he is also another character where you don't wanna be knocked down, his moves can break guards so easily but as you said he is to slugish, that's the price you have to pay for powerful characters.

Cervantes, could be one of the most leathal chacters though, all the pro players use him lot and Ivy, she does have a nice selection of moves on offer. Such as this one where she swings her Ivy Blade low and wraps around your leg, that's a very useful move.

Out of curiousit for all SCII players what's your weapon master rank?

Mine - Grand Master of the Pegasus somewhere in the area of 3.2 million exp

Yep, Cervantes is one of my favorite characters. I'm all right with him, but I don't remember his moves...... I kinda go brain dead.

Hmm, ranking. I'll have to check. I don't remember the last time I was in weapon master mode. ^_^

This fight comes down to how many friends you have! (no offense!) ^_^;;

IMO SSBM is better with 4 players than SC2 is with 2, but SC2 is better in single player Weapon Master mode.
OVERALL THOUGH! Super Smash Brothers Melee completely rocks SC2s vs. mode!
With 4 players going it's good as-is, BUT there's so much more! In any given melee battle you can change up teams for however, (1v1, 1v2, 1v3, 2v2, etc.) Or you can change how the entire dynamic of the VS. is played! OMG you can set it on stock lives so the person who knows how to survive the longest wins, OR, set it on time so you can die as much as you like and everyone can play the max time in the same game, or you can set it on Points so the person who has the best fighting style will win, OR!! you can set it on coin so you can have a mad melee frenzy, beating the hell out of each other and picking up coins they drop or that are beaten out of you =p.
Alright that was cool but! theres! more! Ha HA! In any of those battles you can set up the match in special conditions!~ to name a few, giant mode, Super sudden death mode, slow-mo, A-button only, etc. SO! it would take you a very very long time to even play one of each type of game with all your friends!
Whew, man this game rocks! but theres still more! THere's items too! Unlike SC2 where each character has a set of weapons that only they can choose and you know you're only gonna use 3 of the 10 you have ( if you mix it up...), SSBM has a ton of items that any character can use whenever they want to or not want to! You can go through every single item it the game in one round if you want or take none at all and show what you're made of!
While, given, both games have strategy and tactics, both are played in tourney play, and both have high replay value it's clear to see that SSBM is superior Buahahhaahh!......!
Well that was my rant, I have both games and have played them a ton, but SSBM with 4 people is something else. If you haven't played you gotta play! Heck come over to my house and ill school you with peach! (there's always an extra wavebird open =P)

Heh... id take that as a challenge if i wasnt so busy, but i doubt youd get close enough to 'school me with peach'

I never played SC2, but everyone says it good, so I voted for it. SSBM is good, but I have it and is bored with it, haven't played it at all since last year (about some 6-7 months ago) I've been too busy playing Day of Reckoning and Mario Party4. I'm going with SSBM since I had hands-on experience, plus the variety of characters and stages too.
